Centre’s ‘Idea box’ seeks new plans
Wooden boxes installed at prominent places inviting ideas from officials and visitors
New Delhi: In its quest to seek out-of-the-box solutions to governance-related matters, the government has put up ‘idea boxes’ inside the power corridors of North Block which houses the ministries of personnel and home affairs among others.
These wooden boxes mentioning ‘idea box’ and ‘vichar petika’ have been installed at prominent places in the North Block by the Department of Personnel and Training, inviting ideas from officials and visitors.
“There are suggestion boxes at government offices but they have not received the desired response. This innovative measure will encourage people to drop in any suggestion they may have on governance-related matters. All suggestions received through ‘idea boxes’ will be promptly looked into,” a DoPT official said.
